Chapter 339 The Truth Behind the Reversal of Events

"How dare they!" Homelander looked at the newspaper in his hand, his face twisted with anger, like a lion whose dignity was provoked, looking particularly terrifying.

"Because you killed the reporter they sent, idiot!"

Edgar was so angry that his facial muscles were trembling. You know, even some anti-government organizations in war-torn countries and regions dare not easily attack reporters. After all, the media holds the majority of the voice rights in the world. They can make a person famous or infamous.

And Homelander's actions can be said to have touched their real reverse scales. If things continue to develop like this, it will not only be Homelander who will be destroyed, but even the entire Water Group will be buried with Homelander.

"Look at what stupid things you have done! Are you going to let me clean up your ass for the rest of your life? Fuck!" Edgar rarely loses control of his emotions, but today he wrote anger on his face! He didn't expect Homelander to be so stupid that he dared to kill reporters.

Edgar walked to the French window and looked at the dark crowd downstairs of the Water Building. His mood was extremely bad.

"You don't really think you can cover the sky with one hand?" He turned his head and looked at Homelander with a sullen face.

"Then...what should we do now?" It was not until now that Homelander realized the seriousness of the problem. To put it bluntly, he didn't realize that his accidental indulgence would lead to such serious consequences.

When he thought that he might lose his past glory and turn from a respected superhero to a murderer despised by everyone, this gap was no different from turning from a billionaire to a penniless beggar living on the street. Homelander was as nervous as a bowstring. If he was not physically strong enough, his forehead might have been covered with sweat at this time.

"Mr. Edgar, Jervis is here." Ashley, who looked tired, walked into the meeting room with Xia Shang, and then turned around and left at Edgar's nod.

"Soldier boy, this is our internal meeting of Walter, I don't want outsiders present."

Edgar sat in the first chair at the front of the conference table. After the soldier boy left, he looked at Xia Shang meaningfully, pointed to the seat next to him, and said, "Sit down."

Seeing that both of them were seated, Edgar put on gold-rimmed glasses and placed his hands on the table with his fingers crossed.

"How to solve it? Tell us your own ideas."

Homelander said first: "Just say that Billy and his friends did it. Anyway, those media have no substantial evidence."

He didn't believe that those reporters would record videos or take photos regardless of life and death when they were escaping. As long as the scene at that time was not photographed, it could not be proved that he killed the person.

After hearing this, Xia Shang raised the corner of his mouth subtly. It must be said that this logic is indeed very Homelander.

"Do you think the police and the people in the Superhuman Affairs Office are all blind? Will they not recognize the marks left by the Cyclops? This alone is enough reason to send you to the federal court." To be honest, if the situation is not serious, it may affect the survival of the Vought Group. Edgar really doesn't want to come forward to help Homelander clean up his mess.

"Billy got the temporary compound No. 5 from somewhere. After the injection, he has the same Cyclops as me. I think..."

Before Homelander finished speaking, Edgar interrupted him with his eyes.

"Where is the proof? Where is the evidence that Billy has Cyclops? Just by talking, you want to convince the whole American people. Don't you think this is ridiculous? What's more, the temporary compound No. 5 has never been made public. Are you going to reveal the top secrets of Vought Company?"

For Homelander's naivety, Edgar's mood at the moment is no longer enough to be disappointed, but completely numb.

He turned his eyes and looked at Xia Shang.

"Tell me what you think."

In the empty conference room, Xia Shang, who was sitting on Edgar's right, smiled and said calmly: "Everything happens for a reason. If you want to resolve this public opinion, you must first make up a reasonable and legitimate reason. If I remember correctly, it happened in Vermont, where the annual superhuman X-party "Heroic Climax" was being held, and these ordinary people didn't know.

The first point... gathering for promiscuity, there may be minors they illegally imprisoned."

Xia Shang bit the word "maybe" very hard.

"The motherland rescued those girls, and we can "find" them and let them stand up to testify for the motherland."

"Girls? Where are the girls?" The motherland said a little confused.

"From now on, please shut up, can you do it?"

Edgar knocked on the table with his knuckles, and then motioned Xia Shang to continue.

"The second point is that people gather to take drugs. Although I have never been there, there should be some drugs left there.

The third point is that Soldier Boy, as the founder of the event, also participated in the event, and brought Ryan with him. The purpose of Homelander going to Vermont was to hunt down Soldier Boy, so naturally, there was a fierce battle between the two. Many people were involved in the battle. Homelander tried to control himself from hurting innocent people, but was beaten back step by step.

Even his own son shot at him with laser eyes. In desperation, Homelander was forced to fight back, and then the situation reversed. Soldier Boy and Ryan killed those reporters while escaping and tried to throw dirty water on Homelander.

It is conceivable that the soldier boy who betrayed the United States and threw himself into the arms of Russia must have committed such a heinous crime. He is the most powerful super criminal in history and Walt's lifelong enemy. "

Xia Shang's voice was like a devil's whisper, easily turning the truth of the matter upside down.

"Very good, very good." Edgar showed a satisfied smile. He was indeed right. Jervis was the same type of person as him. Unfortunately, people like him had great ambitions and could not be used by him. Unless some special means are used... He thought of a female student at Godokin University. Her superpowers were rare and very useful.

"Just do what Jervis said. I'll ask Ashley to arrange a press conference for you right away. Remember, this is your only chance. If you screw up again, no one can save you. Sometimes , you should really learn from Jervis and abandon the pitiful and pathetic illusions in your heart. To the soldier boy, you are just a copy of him. To Ryan, you are just his mother-killing enemy. I hope you understand what to choose."

Edgar stood up and looked into the eyes of his motherland, "You must know how to cherish the hard-won things." (End of Chapter)
